Welcome to WUGO. What does the name stand for and why is it the name of the blog?
1) What Up Going On. It is a mash up of me not being able to properly say “What’s up?” or “What’s going on?” to a coworker as he walked by one day. The phrase stuck and it was shortened to “WUGO” quickly after. I named the blog after it because it’s random and personally humorous.
What to know about me? If you follow personality profiles, I am an INFP in Myers-Briggs and an Enneagram 4. I enjoy running and have completed eleven marathons along with several of half marathons and other races. I have a strong appreciation for single-malt Scotch. I’m Team Nikon and Team Pixel for photography. And in general, I’m a bit of a tech geek so come at me with questions and thoughts about technology! But I love a thoughtful conversation about a wide variety of topics.
This site exists as a way to share my thoughts about life, but not in an instant knee-jerk reaction, “re-post and re-hash what I just read for the site traffic” kind of way. I hope to bring my perspective on life, relationships, technology, faith, and whatever else is on my mind to share with you.
I also hope to continue sharing my photography from time to time, but that can mainly be found via my Instagram account.
Enjoy the site. Join the conversation in the comments. Take time to process life at a pace slower than what everyone says we should be going at. There’s value in going slower and more deliberately in what we do, think, and say.
